"5JESUS ANSWERED,
VERILY, VERILY, I SAY UNTO THEE,
EXCEPT A MAN BE BORN
OF WATER AND OF THE SPIRIT,
HE CANNOT ENTER INTO
THE KINGDOM OF GOD."

"6THAT WHICH IS BORN
OF THE FLESH IS FLESH;
AND THAT WHICH IS BORN
OF THE SPIRIT IS SPIRIT."
--- [John 3: 5-6 - Bible]

"3Know ye not,
that as many of us as were
baptized into Jesus Christ
were baptized into His death?"

"4Therefore we are buried with Him
by baptism into death:
that like as Christ was raised up
from the dead
by the glory of The Father,
EVEN SO WE ALSO SHOULD
WALK IN NEWNESS OF LIFE

"5For if we have planted together
in the likeness of His death
we shall also be in
the likeness of His resurrection."

"6Knowing this, that
OUR OLD MAN IS
CRUCIFIED WITH HIM,
THAT THE BODY OF SIN
MIGHT BE DESTROYED,
THAT HENCEFORTH WE SHOULD
NOT SERVE SIN."
--- [Romans 6: 3-6 - Bible]

"WASH YOU, MAKE YOU CLEAN;
put away the evil of your doings
from before mine eyes;
cease to do evil;"
--- [Isaiah 1: 16 - Bible]

"And now why tarriest thou?
arise, and
BE BAPTIZED AND WASH AWAY THY SINS,
calling on the name of the Lord."
--- [Acts 22: 16 - Bible]

"John did baptize in the wilderness,
and preach
THE BAPTISM OF REPENTANCE
FOR THE REMISSION OF SINS." --- [Mark 1: 4 - Bible]

{ "REMISSION"means to take away; remit.
So when you are baptized
by someone who holds the
authority to baptize you,
your sins are taken away,
and you are washed clean
and have a new start.
Baptism is not only like
jumpstarting a car,
but much more:
It is like giving the car
a new engine and a new body.}

"And of tenets
thou shalt not talk,
but thou shalt declare
repentance and faith on the Saviour,
AND REMISSION OF SINS BY BAPTISM,
and by fire, yea, even the Holy Ghost."
--- [D&C 19: 31]

"Then Peter said unto them:
Repent, AND BE BAPTIZED EVERY ONE OF YOU
IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST
FOR THE REMISSION OF SINS,
and ye shall receive
The Gift of The Holy Ghost.

For the promise is unto you,
and to your children,
and to all that are afar off,
even as many as the Lord
our God shall call."
--- [Acts 2: 38 - Bible]

"Therefore,
as I said unto mine apostles
I say unto you again, that
EVERY SOUL WHO
BELIEVETH ON YOUR WORDS,
AND IS BAPTIZED BY WATER
FOR THE REMISSION OF SINS,
shall receive the Holy Ghost."
--- [D&C 84: 64]

"Repent
AND BE BAPTIZED IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST,
according to the holy commandment,
FOR THE REMISSION OF SINS;" --- [D&C 49: 13]

"The power and authority
of the lesser, or Aaronic Priesthood,
is to hold the keys of
the ministering of angels,
and to administer in
outward ordinances,
the letter of the Gospel,
THE BAPTISM OF REPENTANCE
FOR THE REMISSION OF SINS,
agreeable to the
covenants and commandments."

{of The Lord's Church in these
Latter-Days, even
The Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter-Day Saints.}

--- [D&C 107: 20]

"Verily, verily, I say unto you,
THEY WHO BELIEVE NOT
ON YOUR WORDS,
AND ARE NOT BAPTIZED IN WATER
IN MY NAME,
FOR THE REMISSION OF THEIR SINS,
that they may receive the Holy Ghost,
SHALL BE DAMNED,
and shall not come into
my Father's kingdom
where my Father and I am."
--- [D&C 84: 74]

"10Behold I say unto you that
this thing shall ye teach---
repentance and baptism
unto those who are accountable
and capable of committing sin;
yea, teach parents that they
must repent and be baptized,
and humble themselves
as their little children,
and they shall all be saved
with their little children.

"11And their little children
need no repentance, neither baptism.
BEHOLD,
BAPTISM IS UNTO REPENTANCE
TO THE FULFILLING OF
THE COMMANDMENTS
UNTO THE REMISSION OF SINS." --- [Moroni 8: 10-11 - The Book of Mormon]

"AND THEIR CHILDREN
SHALL BE BAPTIZED FOR
THE REMISSION OF THEIR SINS
WHEN EIGHT YEARS OLD,
and receive the laying on of hands."
--- [D&C 68: 27]

"We believe that
the first principles and ordinances
of the Gospel are: first,
Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ;
second, Repentance;
third, BAPTISM BY IMMERSION
FOR THE REMISSION OF SINS;
fourth, Laying on of Hands
for the Gift of the Holy Ghost."
--- [The Articles of Faith - 4]

{And I bear testimony that baptism
by one who holds the
the authority to baptize,
washes away our sins,
and gives us a new start,
that we should not serve sin
any longer,
IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST. AMEN."
